Answer:
b, due to the fact that a simile is when you compare two completely different things that have certain similarities
The narrator is 33 years old and about 8 years have passed between the beginning of Gilead and the time the narrator is living.
We can reach this answer because:
- "The Handmaid's Tale" is a book written by Margaret Atwood.
- The narrator of this book is the protagonist of the story.
- The reader does not have much information about her, but know that she is a 33-year-old fertile woman.
- She lived in the US and at age 25 she witnessed the US government being taken over by a radical, ultra-religious group that took over the country and turned it into a place called Gilead.
- There she became a handmaid and was responsible for bearing children for wealthy families who could not bear children.
- This required her to go through very violent processes, lose all her freedom, and be removed from her family.
As we can see, the protagonist and narrator is telling the story of when she was 33 years old, but she shows the moments when Gilead began to be established when she was around 25 years old.
With that, we can say that about eight years have passed.

The correct answer is I, II, and III.
The first sentence support the thesis statement by using a metaphor: it compares a settler cleaning weeds from a corn field with men killing all types of life to comfortably settle in a land.
The second sentence expresses how men have devoted years and centuries developing and improving different types of weapons that would make them better killers.
And the third sentence shows that man has taken his desire for killing so far that he even wants to kill the microorganisms that live in their homes.
